They are self adjusting but if you want to speed up the process, you can back the car up and pump the brake; each time you apply the brake in reverse it helps to adjust the rear brakes.

How do you adjust the handbrake on an 03 reg Mitsubishi space star?

First question is: Why do you think it needs adjusting? These cars are fitted with self adjusting rear calipers. Most likely scenario is that the rear pads are stuck in the calipers and both rear calipers need stripping and cleaning. Next likely scenario is to be found whilst cleaning the brakes is that one or both handbrake cables are stiff or seized. MY space star had one rear cable rubber boot displaced during a previous pad change, this allowed water into the rear end and caused the cable to seize partly "on". My advice is; if you know what you are doing and can service the brakes, carry out the brake service and most of your problems will be identified. If you are unsure, get professional help.

Why are adjusting entries needed at the end of an accounting period?

Adjusting Entries are journal entries that are made at the end of the accounting period, to adjust expenses and revenues to the accounting period where they actually occurred. Generally speaking, they are adjustments based on reality, not on a source document. This is in sharp contrast to entries during the accounting period (such as utility bills or fees for services rendered) that depend on source documents.

How do you adjust your Toyota Tazz handbrake tension?

First make sure the the rear brakes are correctly adjusted. Next thing is to make sure the front wheels are choked so that the car does not roll during adjustment. Now release the handbrake. Next to the handbrake you will see two nuts on a threaded shaft. The bottom one is used for adjusting the handbrake whilst the top one is just a lock nut to stop the bottom nut from working loose. You will need to loosen the top nut and then turn the bottom nut to adjust the handbrake. The handbrake should be adjusted so that it holds the car when clicked 4-7 times.
